Biography

Andreas Glatz is a physicist at the Materials Science Division and professor at the Department of Physics of Northern Illinois University. His work in theoretical and computational condensed matter physics and materials science is focused on dynamical processes in quantum and nano-materials. In particular, he was leading the SciDAC partnership on Optimizing superconductor transport properties through large-scale simulation with the main objective to develop and apply novel methods for optimizing superconductors for energy applications using large-scale computational algorithms and tools. The resulting numerical tools paved the way for a systematic method to design superconductors with high critical currents.
